Hi All
Just back from our 25th Wedding Anniversary 6 Day's in San Francisco and 4 Day's on our coach trip to Las Vegas and the Grand Canyon and more.
It was a very good trip but very hectic and tired but well worth it, the only problem that we had is that we we're the only Two Europeans on a full Bus of Chinesse
and there was no conversation with the other passangers. It would have been nice to have had conversations with other people. I think this Company was run by all Chinesse people because they had other Tour's with other Buses and they we're all Chinesse people aswell, but apart from that the Tour was very good.
Thanks
John and Trish

The tour was excellent. Our guide, How and driver Wayne did a fantastic job. The tour structure was also very good.
Although the bus ride hours were long in some part of the journey in this 4 day trip, our guide and driver gave their best to ensure that we have a good trip. How's commentary is excellent, the hospitality and positive vibes that he portrayed is superb. Though the ride from Vegas to SF is 11 hours, I did not find it exhausting.
Our driver Wayne was also very helpful to provide support to us during the trip. All of us feel safe in his hands throughout the journey.
Yes, I would recommend this tour and would book with Take Tours when I visit SF again. My sincere appreciation to all staff that make my trip a memorable one.

My wife and I had a really fantastic trip to Yosemite National Park, Las Vegas and the West rim of the Grand Canyon. It was an unforgettable experience which was enhanced by the care and attention we received from our Tour Guide, Mike. It was a once in a lifetime trip and I would encourage others to experience it.

Very comfortable and fun tour. Our guide Hao (apologies if I did not spell it right) was really funny and kept the trip lighthearted throughout. Accommodation was great in LV (Excalibur) but the one in Fresno could have been better. The rooms there could have been cleaner. The bus we started in should also have been cleaner actually but it wasn't that bad also.
We stopped at decent places for meals, breaks were at reasonable intervals and enough time as given. All drivers we had during the trip really knew their job because I did not feel any exhaustion even after 11hrs. of bus ride back from LV to SFO.
My only feedback would be to highlight the itinerary in more detail on the tour adv page. It will give us an idea of timing for personal planning during spare intervals. I ended up wasting one whole evening in LV because I dint know the timings beforehand to make efficient plans of my own.
Overall fun trip, albeit a little costly for single person booking individually (like me). Maybe some offers could be added for us.
Also, I ended up making a Japanese and a Vietnamese friend so that was great! :)

I recommend this tour!
